Discrete-time Fourier transformIn mathematics, the discrete-time Fourier transform (DTFT), also called the finite Fourier transform, is a form of Fourier analysis that is applicable to a sequence of values. The DTFT is often used to analyze samples of a continuous function. The term discrete-time refers to the fact that the transform operates on discrete data, often samples whose interval has units of time. From uniformly spaced samples it produces a function of frequency that is a periodic summation of the continuous Fourier transform of the original continuous function.
Feasible regionIn mathematical optimization, a feasible region, feasible set, search space, or solution space is the set of all possible points (sets of values of the choice variables) of an optimization problem that satisfy the problem's constraints, potentially including inequalities, equalities, and integer constraints. This is the initial set of candidate solutions to the problem, before the set of candidates has been narrowed down.
Carathéodory's theorem (convex hull)Carathéodory's theorem is a theorem in convex geometry. It states that if a point lies in the convex hull of a set , then can be written as the convex combination of at most points in . More sharply, can be written as the convex combination of at most extremal points in , as non-extremal points can be removed from without changing the membership of in the convex hull. Its equivalent theorem for conical combinations states that if a point lies in the conical hull of a set , then can be written as the conical combination of at most points in .
